Anyone who would be so evil to harm a child deserves the same punishment right before sending them to prison for the rest of their
Miserable lives! This is a perfect reason there should be mandatory sterilization!

Dumb Religions

Why pray for justice to the same god that caused this in the first place? Do you pray cause you think your god wasn't aware of what happened? Didn't your god make everything, and is all knowing and seeing. Yes? No? Your type of thinking makes me wonder how people are so naive and never think about what they say and believe. Give up on god or Jesus or whoever you think can magically make things happen! You'll live a better life.
